Does your child avoid reading?
Guess at words?
Take far longer than other children to complete reading tasks?

You are not alone.

Around 10–15% of children struggle with dyslexia or significant reading difficulties, and many more battle with reading fluency and processing speed.

The problem is not intelligence.

Often the brain simply hasn’t developed the neural pathways required for efficient reading.

This is exactly what Cellfield Reading Treatment was designed to address.

Cellfield is a two-week cognitive treatment programme that strengthens the brain’s reading pathways and can dramatically improve:

• reading fluency
• reading accuracy
• processing speed
• confidence

To help parents understand how this works, we are hosting a free online information session.

📅 Wednesday 18 March
⏰ 6:30 PM

Special guest:

Angela Charalambous
(Cellfield SA Master Licensee – Workshop Reading Centre Johannesburg)

Angela has worked with hundreds of children across South Africa and Cyprus and will explain:

• why some children struggle to read fluently
• what dyslexia and reading processing difficulties really mean
• why traditional tutoring often doesn’t solve the root problem
• how Cellfield retrains the brain to read more efficiently
• what results parents can realistically expect

If you watched our video of the student reading before and after Cellfield, this session will explain how that transformation happens.

🎟 Spaces are limited for the online session

Report and teacher feedback season is upon us. Reading should not be a hinderance to your child’s academic success! 📚
The Cellfield Programme is a neuroscience-based intervention designed to improve reading, spelling, and comprehension skills. It targets the underlying auditory and visual processing difficulties that can make reading challenging, particularly for individuals with dyslexia or other reading disorders. By combining computer-based exercises with targeted reading practice, the programme helps strengthen the brain’s ability to process sounds, letters, and words more efficiently—leading to measurable gains in reading fluency and confidence.

📚✨ Did you know phonological awareness is one of the strongest predictors of reading success?⁠

🔤 It helps children understand that words are made of sounds, supports letter-sound matching, boosts spelling and word reading, and so much more!⁠

Whether you’re a teacher, parent, or therapist — building these skills early sets the stage for confident, successful readers. 💪📖⁠
